Re: Proposal: We should vote on the blocksize limit with proof-of-stake voting
What? He saved the network? That's the best joke I've heard for days.. 
First of all, the DoS attack was not on the network, but on a buggy official client, which I don't even use myself, so I couldn't care less.
Moreover, yesterday on IRC I even proposed a simple improvement that would solve this kind of problems once and for all (fetching data length, along with the hash), but nobody did care about it, including the guy, who among others was extremely impolite to me, so I have just adopted myself to his standards.
Now you get it?

Ah, that's who you are. Yeah /ignore
jdillon: I'll do a write-up in a week or so if you are interested, but waiting a bit longer isn't a bad idea; the network as a whole is safe right now but there are still a lot of non-upgraded nodes out there.
